About a week back there was a big case in India where father has raped his daughter for last many months. After that it was reported that same thing happened in Italy, so i think it is happening in many countries.. If i was judge i would give death sentence to such Fathers and very painful death, not by electric chair or hang till he is dead but may be leave him in a cage with hungry wolves who would bite his flesh inch by inch while he is still alive or something like this.

i would castrate him. simple as that, sick men like that are freaks so we might as well give them the physical appearance of one too. i hate people like this. they're SELFISH and they have no regard to others around them. if i could personally get away with destroying them all myself, i would with no hesitation. i wish i were a judge just so i could send these disgusting animals where they belong.

yes it happens all over the world that is true,
yes I would want a tough sentence, probably one that fits the crime, he goes to jail for the rest of his life and is raped by other male inmates over and over again.

Thanks winterose for the response and i do hope this guy gets real tough sentence and though no law lets them have this kind of sentence which u suggested but i wish he got this so he knows the pain but knowing the kind of persons these kind of person are may be he would enjoy this punishment so first got to check if he would repent being raped or enjoy it.

I think the punishment that they had many years ago was very effective, it is called castration. And then the offender had to support the victim for life.
Simple, effective and punishment will be for every day of his life

wow yes i agree with you these men should be dealt with severely and painfully ... my only problem is that the child involved will have longer to move on because they will have the constant reminder there and until the man is out of their life for good they can not move on. I feel for these children and so sad that the people who they should be looking to for protection are the ones they need protection from .. its heartbreaking.. we really need to find a painful way to deal with them but one that works quickly so the children are able to move on with their lives and get the help they deserve.

the problem with making everything so public is that you make the victim public too and she or he will never get over the shame and hurt if they think everyone knows them and they can not walk the street without fear of people reminding them or even worse trying to hurt them .. I think what we have to do is make sure the victims are protected first then carry out our vengeance second.

Thanks Kedves for the response and i it is real bad that some persons behave like this and if the story is true and he is found guilty beyond any reasonable amount of doubt then he should have public punishment ie whole public should see it. He shd be punished in main market and it should be shown live on national television so it sets an example for others who are thinking on same lines what can happen to them too and it would give courage to girls who are being raped to come forward and lodge their complaint to police.

I would give him more of a punishment than I would give the person who did it if they were a complete stranger... but sadly and sickly in the United States, the punishment against those who rape their daughters is a walk in the park compared to what a stranger would get for doing it.... I say cut off their willies and feed em to the dogs!

Well, the biggest thing is it has been happening for many many many yrs. all over the world, and it is so hard to prevent and Stop things like this from happening. And the biggest thing sometimes is getting a Court to believe you. As someeone who has physically and sexually abused by my Step dad about 40 yrs. ago, and he has never been arrested, even though people have said things about him doing this,
I feel that every man that does this does need help, but at the same time they should be punished for their actions. Personally I would wonder why they result down to this, but seriously wish there was a way to Stop this from happening everywhere as it destroys so many lives for sure. As for an appropriate punishment I am not sure what would be the Best for them.

Thanks HrauseHome for the response and i am really really sad about learning your story. i did wish he got the sentence. Well laws are different in India. All a girl has to go to police and say i was raped and police would arrest the accused first and put him in jail and then go for the medical examination of girl and make a case. Here a man has to prove innocence in rape cases and if he cant he is guilty. This is being misused a lot but thats how it is. So if you were here all you had to do was go to police and he would be punished .

I have no idea what do with these kind of people. My darker self says do horrible things to them, but then I realize that if we do that we risk becoming "the evil we deplore." Parents (either parent) are supposed to protect their kids, not abuse them in this horrible sort of way. I'm sure that this father ought not get out of jail ever!

Honestly, I think rapist should be hung. I also think that if more hardcore criminals...murderers, rapists, child molesters...were hung that less ppl would attempt to do the same thing knowing what the punishment is. The problem is that instead they get a life sentence of three meals a day, medical treatment, possible education, a prison job, recreation and visits...doesn't sound all that bad for breaking the law.

Hi twoey68,
Yes hanging is a punishment and it can deter lots and lots of persons to commit such crimes but i think if you kill him slowly due to extreme torture then it would deter more persons and he would too feel shame and pain of the victim which he forced on to her.

My punishment would be short and sweet - publically surgically castrate him and let him spend the rest of his miserable life never being able to get it up again.

Would prefer him to be imprisoned all his life, to the dark room with no one to talk to. Thereby he would realize all his criminal acts and no matter how regretful he is, no way for him and no chance for him to even ask forgiveness from his victim.

I read about that case too and to be frank i was shocked. It was beyond belief that a father can do this to her kids.. He should be punished and punished what law can give him maximum but i wont go for cruel punishment and we live in civil society so i would just put him in a cell for rest of his life.. have a holy man preach him about religion and let him repent what he did.

Thats very nice thoughts but i do have doubts about it that i dont think he would give much importance to the holy man or what he is going to teach and would probably look at watch when the hour is going to be over just like small kids wait for the maths period to be over.

I would tell them they are Going to Hell! That is so sick for a person to do this to there own child or any child. I hate people like that!

going to hell has hardly ever deterred any person to not to do crime.. because u do anything and u go to hell.. be not kind to a begger ur going to hell, hit someone back ur going to hell, talk badly about someone ur going to hell.. so anyways everyone would be going to hell so fear of hell wont stop anyone from doing anything wrong, certainly not people like these who can rape their daughters.

is castration still allowed?
well i would employ those methods they use in olden days china where the emperor was still alive and had eunuchs running his palace.
if castration is not allowed, than a life imprisonment.

Thx tony .. for the response and well as i said before even animals are going to take offense and might take you to court for degrading them by equating them to these kind of men.. so be careful.. and yes they deserve punishment of the caliber only reserved for serial killers .
